What else can I help you with?
What type of muscle is associated with the upper arm?
The upper arm is primarily composed of skeletal muscle. Specifically, muscles such as the biceps brachii and triceps brachii are responsible for movement and stability in the upper arm. These muscles are attached to the bones by tendons and are under voluntary control.
What specific type of muscle makes up most of the muscle of your arm?
It depends. But, the triceps are 2/3 of your upper arm.
Is humerus a part of the skeletal system?
Yes, it's the upper arm bone.
Is the upper arm skeletal?
yes
What is a muscle that rotates the upper arm?
There is not a single muscle that rotates the upper arm. The name of the muscle that contributes in rotation of the upper arm is deltoid muscle.
What muscle bends the arm?
The muscle/muscles that bend your arms are called Flexor and Extensor.
Is biceps and triceps are exampes of skeletal muscles?
Yes they are. The Bicep muscle is attached to the humerus bone (upper arm) at the front. It's the muscle that contracts when you want to bend your arm at the elbow. The tricep muscle is attached to the same bone - but runs down the back. It straightens your arm when it contracts.
What muscle in upper arm that extends lower arm?
The posterior deltoid is one extensor of the upper arm.
What kind of muscle tissue makes up the muscles in the arm?
skeletal muscle
The muscles of the arm are composed primarily of what cell type?
Skeletal muscle cells
What organ system triceps belong to?
The triceps belong to the muscular system, specifically as part of the skeletal muscle group. This muscle is located at the back of the upper arm and is responsible for extending the elbow joint. Additionally, the triceps play a role in movements involving the shoulder, contributing to various physical activities.
What does humerus mean in the skeletal system?
The humerus is the bone in the upper arm that connects the shoulder to the elbow. It is the largest bone in the arm and plays a crucial role in arm movement and strength.
